Description

PR B of the test-suite reformation, after #971. That PR changed how the suite is run; this one changes the suite. No behavior changes, and coverage is unchanged — the coverage_gate from #971 is what says so.

Measured on the same 16-core box, this branch against dev:

dev here
Tests collected 12,643 9,653
Serial, no coverage 200 s 170 s
-n logical --dist loadfile 53 s 41 s
-n 4 --dist load 67 s 55 s
Network tests 118 40
Coverage 100% 100%

The commits, in order

Shrink the tests which spend the most time on data. Eleven tests and fixtures were a fifth of the runtime, none of them for what they assert. The largest was an accident: long_coord was parametrized over COORDS and took coord, which is parametrized over COORDS, so every test using it ran 144 times while only ever seeing 12 coords — 2,500 tests on its own. The rest are patches sized for a screenshot: a pandas rolling apply over 300×2000 samples (7.3 s), a tau-p transform over 1000×2000 (6.6 s), median and savgol filters, a 12-patch merge, a nested-directory walk which wrote the diverse spool three times to test a walk. Where a fixture's extent is what the tests use — mute's lines are given in metres and seconds, the select spec's windows in seconds — the extent stays and only the sampling changes. TestLazyImports spent 13.5 s starting eight interpreters for eight assertions, each needing a process which had not yet imported what the one before it pulls in; ordering them makes it one interpreter.

Build the shared test directories once. The directory fixtures in conftest.py were class-scoped, so an 86 MB directory was written from scratch for each class which asked for one — seven times, for a directory nothing writes to. The one test which did write through one (the indexer's specific-paths update, which changes mtimes) takes a copy of its own. Three fixtures went instead of moving, having no users at all, and with them the SPOOL_FIXTURES registry every spool fixture registered itself in, and DIRECTORY_SPOOLS, whose only reader was four parametrized isinstance checks.

Stop parametrizing over cells which say the same thing. Five parametrized passes over the patch-function call catalogue become three. The remote IO matrix shrinks from every reader to nine — what it tests is the localhost-HTTP streaming path, and every reader is still read, scanned and format-detected against the same files by test_common_io.py, which is not a network test. Then taper windows, nan-reduce keepdims pairs, normalize's nan tests, the glob cases (looping inside one test), MiniSEED encodings and Sintela's validation families.

Keep one test per boundary in the chunk and spool suites. Chunking is planned in chunk_plan.py, assembled in patch_assembly.py and called through Spool.chunk, and each grew its own test for the same boundary. Each boundary keeps the test which asserts the most — usually the one through the public API which checks values, not the one which checks a frame's shape. Also deleted: a chunk test whose body is a TODO and no assertions, and three tests asserting that a removed API is removed.

Let the IO contract speak for each format once. The per-format directories re-asserted what test_common_io.py already asserts for the same files. What stays in each format's file is what only that format has. Two deletions leave something behind: OptoDAS's #419 decimated file joins COMMON_IO_READ_TESTS so the whole contract runs over it, and DASDAE's datetime round-trip now asserts the patch that went in rather than that a patch came back.

Ask the same question of one filter, not four.

Verified

  • Serial, -n logical --dist loadfile, -n 4 --dist load, each test directory on its own, and doctests: all green (9,496 passed, 115 skipped, 2 xfailed; network 40; doctests 204).
  • Nothing in dascore/ is touched: this branch is tests only.
  • Coverage after every commit: 100% but annotations.py:2284, the case-insensitive-filesystem branch macOS and Windows cover — the same one line Run the test suite in parallel and gate on the combined coverage #971 measured.
  • Codex review saved under .scratch/, plus the PR bots. Five real findings, all addressed: MiniSEED's only float32 encoding case had no survivor; the replacement "every taper window" assertion only called callable() on lazy imports, which passes on a scipy symbol that does not exist; shutil.copytree carried the shared directory's index into the copy; the common contract skips a reader's own subclasses, so nothing but the deleted HDAS test said a V1 reader must not claim a V2 file; and zero, not a negative, is the boundary in Sintela's not isfinite(x) or x <= 0.

Dropped from this PR

The plan also had this PR remove four helpers in dascore/utils/patch.py with no callers (patches_to_df, merge_compatible_coords_attrs, check_data_units, _spool_up) and the nineteen tests which existed to cover them. Review caught that scripts/_index_api.py traverses every public module member, so three of the four have generated API pages and a repo-wide search cannot show nobody imports them. That is a deprecation, not a test cleanup, so the commit is dropped; it is worth its own PR.

Not taken from the plan

  • The judgment-heavy deletion lists (inventory, annotations, the remaining spool-select and index-layer rows) stay deferred: the adversarial sample refuted 18% of them, and line coverage cannot see what they lose.
  • test_io_core.py/test_io_utils.py deduplication and the remaining protobuf rows — the same, and worth doing per-test rather than by list.
  • The test_hive_attrs.py read-only/mutating fixture split: six of twelve tests mutate the directory, so it needs two fixtures for about a second.
  • The 14 → 10 cut of test_scan_payload_field_validation: each cell is one payload field's type check, and I could not show cheaply that any four are covered elsewhere.

Changelog

Checklist

I have:

  • filled in the Changelog section above (see docs/contributing/general_guidelines.qmd).

I have (if applicable):

  • included tests. See testing guidelines.
  • added the "ready_for_review" tag once the PR is ready to be reviewed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests
    • Streamlined the test suite with reusable, longer-lived fixtures and more focused regression scenarios.
    • Expanded validation coverage for chunking, coordinates, filtering, tapering, rolling operations, units, invalid values, overlaps, and multidimensional data.
    • Strengthened workflow, indexing, import, processing, and remote I/O reliability checks.
    • Added coverage for additional OptoDAS sample data and Terra15 read behavior.

Eleven tests and fixtures accounted for a fifth of the suite's runtime,
none of them because of what they assert.

The largest was an accident: long_coord was parametrized over COORDS and
also took the coord fixture, which is parametrized over COORDS, so every
test using it ran 144 times while only ever seeing 12 coords. That alone
is 2,500 tests. Its length skip goes with it -- every coord in COORDS is
at least 100 long -- and becomes an assert.

The rest are patches sized for a screenshot rather than an assertion: a
pandas rolling apply over 300x2000 samples (7.3 s), a tau-p transform
over 1000x2000 (6.6 s), median and savgol filters, mute's ones patch
(kept at its 300 m by 8 s extent, since the tests mute along lines given
in metres and seconds), the select-spec spool (kept at 8 s per patch, or
a 2 s window spans all three), a 12-patch merge, and a nested-directory
walk which wrote the diverse spool three times to test a walk.

TestLazyImports spent 13.5 s starting eight interpreters to make eight
assertions, each needing a process which had not yet imported what the
one before it pulls in. Ordering them makes it one interpreter, with the
numba assertion skipped where numba is not installed.

test_slab_larger_than_target_warns needs a slab bigger than 1 kB rather
than a big spool, and the gc-pause deadlock property needs enough
allocation rounds to cross the collection threshold (2000 on 3.13), not
twenty.
The directory fixtures in conftest were class scoped, so an 86 MB
directory of example files was written from scratch for each class which
asked for one -- seven times over, for one directory nothing writes to.
They are session scoped now. The only test which did write through one
(the indexer's specific-paths update, which changes file mtimes) takes a
copy of its own instead.

The same for fixtures elsewhere which hand out an immutable value: a
frozen AnnotationSet, a written spool nothing writes to again, the
randomized index population. Where a fixture took tmp_path it takes
tmp_path_factory, since a wider scope cannot ask for the narrower one.

Three fixtures went instead of moving: the spool meta-fixture had no
users, and with it the SPOOL_FIXTURES registry every spool fixture was
registering itself in; adjacent_spool_directory and terra15_das_spool had
none either. So did the DIRECTORY_SPOOLS registry, once its only reader
-- four parametrized isinstance checks -- went with it.

Two tests are gone: dir_spool_1_dim_patches and its merge test, which is
the memory version of test_patch_chunk's test_merge_1_dim_patches with
the patches written to disk first and covers no line of its own, and
directory_spool_redundant_index's twelve re-index rounds, which produce
exactly the row count one round does.

Full suite green serially, under loadfile and load, and with each test
directory run on its own; coverage unchanged.
Each cut keeps whatever the dropped cells were the only cover for; the
coverage run is unchanged.

The largest is the patch-function contract: five parametrized passes over
the call catalogue become three. `_same_patch` already compares history,
so asserting it is a line in the call test rather than a second pass over
every call, and fingerprint, pickle and version are three assertions
about one operation rather than three constructions of it.

The remote IO matrix shrinks from every reader to nine. What it tests is
the localhost-HTTP streaming path -- whole-file HDF5, ranged HDF5, a
plain binary walk, a SEG-Y trace scan, an obspy handoff, and NETCDF_CF,
the only reader which unwraps the handle into h5netcdf. Every reader is
still read, scanned and format-detected against the same files by
test_common_io.py, which is not a network test.

The rest: three taper windows plus one test that every name in the table
reaches a callable; the nan-reduce pair (keepdims, axis=0), whose answer
axis=1 already gives; normalize's nan tests on one dimension; the glob
translation cases looping inside one test, since each is a fifth of a
millisecond and the assertion names the pattern which disagreed; one
encoding per dtype in the MiniSEED table; one value per clause of
Sintela's `not isfinite(x) or x <= 0`; and two of four cache cases.
Chunking is planned in chunk_plan.py, assembled in patch_assembly.py and
called through Spool.chunk, and each of the three grew its own test for
the same boundary: contiguous patches merging into one, an invalid
conflict policy, an overlap at least as long as the window, a missing
dimension, an unknown dimension, the modified flag, descending merges,
mixed-dtype size chunking. Each boundary keeps the test which asserts the
most -- usually the one which goes through the public API and checks the
values, not the one which checks a frame's shape.

The same for the spools: deep_equality_check has thirty tests in
test_misc.py and five of the same branches in test_spool.py, and the
iteration tests kept len, index and IndexError separately from the test
which asserts all three at once.

Deleted outright: a chunk test whose body is a TODO comment and no
assertions, and three tests which assert that a removed API is removed --
a summary's flattened lookup, its get_coord, and the old concrete spool
class names. Nothing in dascore is reached by those, so they can only
break when someone adds a name back deliberately.

Coverage is unchanged, which is what says the deleted tests were the sole
cover for nothing.

Changes

The pull request consolidates test coverage, broadens fixture scopes, removes obsolete tests, and adds focused checks for core, IO, processing, import, and workflow behavior.

Dascore test-suite updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Fixture lifecycle and shared test data
tests/conftest.py, tests/test_core/test_annotation_loader.py, tests/test_core/test_coord_segmented.py, tests/test_core/test_spool_inventory.py, tests/test_io/test_index/*, tests/test_io/test_io_core.py, tests/test_proc/test_mute.py, tests/test_transform/test_hilbert.py
Spool registration and the generic spool fixture were removed. Direct fixtures now use broader scopes and shared temporary directories. Several tests use deterministic or shared data.
Core behavior test rebaseline
tests/test_core/*, tests/test_proc/*, tests/test_transform/test_tau_p.py, tests/test_utils/*
Redundant tests were removed. Focused coverage was added or retained for coordinates, directory spools, chunk sizing, spool edges, filter validation, taper windows, and utility behavior.
IO coverage and remote test updates
tests/test_io/*
Obsolete format, round-trip, selection, and integration tests were removed. The common matrix gained an OptoDAS regression file, and remote tests now use an explicit allowlist.
Import and workflow contract consolidation
tests/test_imports.py, tests/test_workflow/test_patch_op.py, tests/test_workflow/test_task.py
Import subprocess checks and workflow contract checks were consolidated. JIT-kernel validation remains in a separate subprocess test.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 0c349

The test-suite reduction leaves two bounded gaps in regression detection: an empty-patch deserialization test does not verify equality, and the import test may miss eager loading of the root scipy package. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up to strengthen these tests.

Keep long_coord compatible with coord scope.

long_coord now has session scope but still requests the parameterized coord fixture. If coord retains its default function scope, pytest raises ScopeMismatch before tests using long_coord run. Pytest only permits a fixture to depend on fixtures with an equal or broader scope. (docs.pytest.org)

Keep long_coord function-scoped, or promote coord deliberately while preserving its parameterization.

Make the shortened loop guarantee a collection.

The loop creates 200 _NeedsPhil instances per round. Eight rounds create 1,600 instances, while the comment states a threshold of 2,000. This does not guarantee collection before the loop completes. Python starts collection from the net allocation count and the configured threshold. (docs.python.org)

Compute the number of rounds from gc.get_threshold() with a margin, or assert that collection occurred during the loop.

P1 Badge Deprecate the exported helper before removing it

Existing users importing patches_to_df from dascore.utils.patch will now fail with ImportError. This helper has been present since 2022 and was part of the generated API because scripts/_index_api.py traverses every non-private module member, so a repo-wide caller search cannot establish that external users do not depend on it. Preserve it through a deprecation cycle or provide a compatibility shim and migration documentation rather than removing it as part of a test-only change. .agents/agents.mdL43-L46

You are right, and the commit is dropped from this PR. I had checked dascore/, docs/ and scripts/ for callers but not how the API pages are built: scripts/_index_api.py:262 traverses every member whose name does not start with an underscore, so patches_to_df, merge_compatible_coords_attrs and check_data_units each have a generated page (_spool_up does not). That makes this a deprecation rather than a test cleanup, and it belongs in its own PR. The branch now touches no file outside tests/.

P2 Badge Retain the V1-versus-V2 detection boundary

If the V1 detector starts accepting a V2 HDAS file, the shared IO suite will not catch it: HDASV2 subclasses HDASV1, and test_all_other_files_arent_format skips an other_io whenever isinstance(other_io, type(io_instance)), so it skips the V2 fixture while testing HDASV1. The generic dc.get_format check only requires some format to be returned, while the expected-version contract invokes the V2 handler directly. Keep the deleted V1-rejects-V2 assertion or change the shared test's skip predicate so this format boundary remains covered. .agents/agents.mdL30-L34

Confirmed and restored. isinstance(HDASV2(), type(HDASV1())) is True, so test_all_other_files_arent_format skips the V2 files while testing V1, and HDASV1().get_format(hdas_2.h5) was asserted nowhere else. Both directions are back in b97ddba, with a comment saying why the contract cannot cover this one.

P2 Badge Keep zero in the invalid-value cases

Using only -1.0 for the x <= 0 branch no longer tests its exact boundary: if any of these validations regresses from <= 0 to < 0, the negative case still passes and np.inf still covers the non-finite branch, while zero is silently accepted. Preserve 0.0 for sample rate, channel spacing, and FFT bin resolution; np.nan may be redundant with infinity, but zero is not redundant with a negative value. .agents/agents.mdL30-L34

Fixed in b97ddba — the cells are now 0.0 and np.inf rather than -1.0 and np.inf. Zero is the boundary the check spells x <= 0, so a regression to < 0 fails there; -1.0 would have passed it.

tests/test_io/test_common_io.py runs one contract -- get_format, read,
scan, slice, attr vocabulary -- over every reader and every test file.
The per-format directories then asserted the same things again on the
same files: that the format detects itself, that a read returns a spool,
that a slice past the end is empty, that no storage-provenance attr
appears, that another format's file is not claimed.

Those repeats go. What stays in each format's file is what only that
format has: its own header values, its corrupt-file branches, its writer
where the contract has none.

Two deletions leave something behind rather than nothing. OptoDAS's #419
decimated file joins COMMON_IO_READ_TESTS instead of having a read test
of its own, so the whole contract now runs over it. DASDAE's datetime
round-trip asserted only that a patch came back; it now asserts the patch
that went in.
The four filters each had a no-kwargs test, and each of those reaches the
same helper; TestPassFilterChecks keeps the one which raises from
pass_filter's own check, and TestGetDimAxisValue covers the helper. The
same for two fingerprint tests which test_serialize.py already makes
about the serializer they call, and for two enrich tests whose warn and
ignore paths their neighbours already take.
Two things the smaller matrices dropped without a survivor. MiniSEED's
encoding 4 is the only one which maps to float32, and the window table's
entries are lazy imports, so asserting they are callable passes on a
scipy symbol which does not exist -- calling each one for a short window
is what makes that fail. Found in review.
shutil.copytree brings the shared directory's index along with its files,
so the timestamps this test compares would be whatever indexed it first.
Deleting the sidecars matches the isolated-copy tests above it. Found in
review.
The common contract skips a reader's own subclasses, and HDASV2
subclasses HDASV1, so nothing else says a V1 reader must not claim a V2
file. And zero, not a negative, is the boundary in `not isfinite(x) or
x <= 0`: with only -1.0 a regression to `< 0` passes. Found in review.
Adversarial review, six reviewers. Response in .scratch/.

The select-spec spool lost a distance axis wider than the window
TestSamples trims to, so the trim it exists to test became a no-op:
proven by deleting the selection outright and watching all 24 cells pass.
At 40 channels the same perturbation fails 12 of them again.

The gc-pause loop was cut below the gen-0 threshold. It still had teeth
in practice -- the counter does not start at zero, and the unpaused loop
deadlocks on the first round -- but whether it did depended on what ran
before it. Lowering the threshold for the duration says what the round
count was standing in for.

The tau-p aperture left the winning slowness 0.996 of its neighbour,
against an assertion whose tolerance is one grid step; 400x1000 puts it
back to 0.73 and is still five times quicker than what it replaced.

The taper replacement asserted a window's length where the property is
its shape, so an alias pointing at boxcar passed it. The numba assertion,
folded into the merged import test, reported as passed on a job with no
numba rather than as skipped. The three filter tests deleted as duplicates
raised a different error from a different module than the one kept.

Also: an assert that every REMOTE_FORMATS entry matched a reader, so a
version bump fails instead of shortening the matrix; a class which
collected no tests; five orphaned fixtures; and four comments which
stated something the code does not do.

Assert the empty-patch equality result.

Also check that scipy is not imported eagerly.

The precondition checks scipy.signal but not the root scipy package. A regression that imports scipy during import dascore while leaving scipy.signal unloaded would pass this test. Add scipy to the initial module list.

pause_gc counts the pause before it warns, so on a job which raises on
warnings the pause is already taken when the exception leaves -- and with
the call outside the try, nothing resumed collection or put the threshold
back for the rest of the session. Confirmed: under -W error pause_gc
raises UserWarning, and with the try around it both are restored.

The validation matrices keep a negative alongside zero: `< 0` would let
zero through and `== 0` would let the negative through, so neither value
covers for the other. Both found in review.
